In reference to dog training from 1930. "RAND was involved in the formulation of the two major theories of population analysis, the battle space in Counterinsurgency Operations. The first theory, commonly called the "hearts and minds" argues that the impact of development and modernity on traditional societies causes the fragmentation of old institutions before new institutions are in place. This institutional gap creates problems, which can then give rise to insurgency. The prescription for success is therefore to win the public's support (their "hearts and minds") for the government by ameliorating some of the negative effects of development while speeding up the provision of modernity's benefits. RAND analysts felt that even if the actual provision of benefits lagged, the key was providing security to the population and convincing it that government was operating for its benefit. Other observers at RAND, steeped in economics and systems analysis, responded to this first theory by arguing that what mattered was not what the population thought but what it did. The key to the population was therefore to provide it with selective incentives to cooperate with the government and disincentives to resist the government." - Austin Long, On "Other War" Lessons from Five Decades of RAND Counterinsurgency Research, 2006 Obedience vs LegalismForget the Data, College is a ReligionObedience Training Is Unfit For Childrenpublic education in the mid 20th centuryPedagoges main function was to teach academics.

Pedagoges believed some children were good and some were bad but children did not use or abuse drugs, legal or illegal.
